Further to "Gatso colour" thread below - Alwyn
Anyone who wishes to see what our government has to say about painting speed cameras in bright colours, see here.

It seems John Spellar was not informed of the true trial results or he would not be saying these things.

Anyone not interested in the subject, please don't read or complain.

Bon chance

Yes.

The utility of a straw fired power station on its own defies belief; is it a straw fired car they really want?

(England exported straw fired traction engines to the Empire. But the only war aim to be fully realized of the true home of straw fired engines, with overhung cranks and all such infelicities, the USA, was the destruction of the Empire!)

On the M6 around........ - DN
.......J29 (I think) there are major motorway repair works (no change there). They have recently put another camera up right behind the bridge pillar. On the approaching side is a sign that says '50 mph in 800yds.'

I wonder how many motorists would be let off a ticket on that one? Hmmmmm, let me think!

Complain toyour MP. I do.

They just might get fed up when they realise how well informed some of us are about the Gatso lies.

I've seen some!
On the North Circular Road at Walthamstow there are road works for 7 weeks with a 30 mph speed limit backed up by a couple of cameras.
AND THEY ARE YELLOW, but a muddy yellow (cheap yellow over grey), but yellow all the same.
